Research on System Virtualization using Xen Hypervisor for ARM based secure mobile phones
نویسنده
چکیده
Mobile phones became the prevailing application in embedded devices. As its market is getting bigger, its security is becoming an important issues. Xen as a virtualization technology could be one of its solutions with domain protection mechanism. Recently, Xen community released the interesting patch that supports mobile devices based on ARM architecture. This seminar paper deals with this patch known as Xen-On-ARM, as well as its background, related work, and future work.

Predictable Packet Latency in Xen-ARM
SUMMARY In this paper, we address latency issue in Xen-ARM virtual machines. Despite the advantages of virtualization in mobile systems, the current Xen-ARM is difficult to apply to mobile devices because it has unpredictable I/O latency. This paper analyzes the latency of incoming packet handling in Xen-ARM, and presents how virtualization affects the latency in detail. To make the latency pre...
متن کاملA Measurement Study of ARM Virtualization Performance
ARM servers are becoming increasingly common, making server technologies such as virtualization for ARM of growing importance. We present the first in-depth study of ARM virtualization performance on ARM server hardware, including measurements of two popular ARM and x86 hypervisors, KVM and Xen. We show how the ARM hardware support for virtualization can support much faster transitions between ...
متن کاملEnabling Virtualization with Xen Hypervisor on Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoCs White Paper (WP474)
Virtualization is a staple for desktop systems but has long been a complex proposition for embedded systems designers, who need to optimize SoC system utilization and performance. Traditionally, the pain of virtualization in the embedded space was caused by the lack of appropriate hardware resources to make the solution easy to implement while providing satisfactory performance. Thus, systems t...
متن کاملVirtual Machine Introspection with Xen on ARM
In the recent years, virtual machine introspection (VMI) has become a valuable technique for developing security applications for virtualized environments. With the increasing popularity of the ARM architecture, and the recent addition of hardware virtualization extensions, there is a growing need for porting existing VMI tools. Porting these applications requires proper hypervisor support, whi...
متن کاملProvable Security Under_docx
Virtualization is the mechanism that provides users a way to use many Operating Systems (OS) without need to reboot the system to shift one to another. If an adversary compromises any guest then virtual monitor (XEN in this context) has no reject any request from that OS. There is no formal proof that this virtual monitor provides security from them. We use virtualized system infrastructure of ...
